After Dark

Arts & Literature

“After Dark, while presented as a poetry collection, is better understood as liturgy. Open this book and let love lift you up and break your heart. Through his achingly beautiful words, Harold Recinos asks that his readers labor for justice to remake American society—a society that has failed to meet the basic human needs of too many of our Latino sisters and brothers, especially their precious children, our precious children.”

The Place across the River

Arts & Literature

“This collection of poetry is spiritual manna for our time. Harold J. Recinos reminds us again and again of the potential of our humanity and the need for humility as we struggle to make our society a place of plenty for all. Recinos, the poet and theologian, is creating a new way to speak. In short, The Place across the River is holy.”
